He waited until the airship turned into a light dot and disappeared into the horizon before he looked back.
At some point, an old man with orange-red hair walked to his side.
It was "Potion Maker" Mithra.
"A thousand years ago, Ivo thought that he was saving Granny Fingernail by entering the Box of Reincarnation alone at the most critical moment. But it turned out to be an obsession that Granny Fingernail couldn't let go of. Granny Fingernail was a woman who didn't care about love or hate. But this obsession has been haunting her all these years.
"Obsession can drive people crazy. You know it, but you can't let it go." Mithra let out a long sigh.
Mithra put a hand on Angor's shoulder. "Alright, I'm going back. By the way, Yeliya just learned a new recipe from Regina's mushroom cooking class. She's still making soup when she left the house. It smells so good. Do you want to try it? "
Angor shook his head and declined.
Mithra shook his head and muttered something under his breath, "You're not going to get anything good." Then he turned around and walked away.
Angor stayed in the same spot for a while before he turned around to leave.
However, he only took a few steps before he sensed someone watching him. Angor followed the gaze and saw someone standing on the balcony of the research department's tower not far away.
That person was wearing an aqua blue dress. Just by casually leaning against the railing, she revealed a graceful posture.
Angor flew over and landed on the balcony.
"Aren't you going back yet, Aqua Witch?" Angor asked out of curiosity.
"I'm a bit sad to see Granny Fingernail leaving. I want to get some fresh air before I go back. "
"Then I won't bother you anymore." Angor turned around to leave. But Farrina stopped him. "By the way, I've been preparing for my seclusion training."
Angor looked at Farrina and waited for her to continue.
"Ever since I felt your Ocean Rhythm last time, it gave me a lot of inspiration. Now, I have some ideas. I'll probably go into seclusion next. Of course, I'll still come out during the Rising Star Competition. " Farrina paused. "You know that my disciple is a little mischievous. Once I go into seclusion, I won't be able to take care of her. Who knows what she'll do or where she'll run off to."
"If I remember correctly, Wizard Padt had something he needed Shirley for. If you don't mind, why don't you take care of her for me?"
Earlier, when he noticed that Shirley could sense Toby's emotions, he decided to exchange contact numbers with her so that he could use her in the future.
However, whether or not Shirley could help Toby was still a question. Therefore, he didn't try to contact Shirley these days. However, Angor was a little hesitant when he heard the water witch's request.
Farrina said, "Shirley offended you last time, but you let her experience the rhythm of the ocean. It's also time for her to repay her debt. "
"Alright. I think I'll leave Floating Mech City after the Rising Star Competition. During this time, I need Shirley's help to confirm something. "
Farrina smiled. "I won't ask about the details. Anyway, if Wizard Padt needs Shirley's help, feel free to order her around."
When Farrina said that she could order Shirley around, she didn't really mean it. She could make Shirley suffer, but for Farrina's sake, she would at least not send Shirley to her death.
…
Floating Mech City. The outskirts of the main city.
Greya was sitting on a roof while looking at a giant griffin circling above her with a satisfied look.
"His griffin form is already as fast and strong as a wizard. If he changes to his serpentine form, he'll be even stronger than a regular wizard," Greya praised. However, she soon calmed down. "It's a pity that Toby can't turn into a serpentine bird right now."
Once he did, his resentment would be lifted and he would regain control of Toby's body. That would be troublesome.
Greya sighed in her mind and wondered when she could get rid of that resentment.
As Greya was thinking, she suddenly heard a muffled "thud". She looked up and saw Toby's giant griffin falling to the ground.
Terrified, Greya quickly jumped down from the roof and ran to where the griffin fell.
Toby just happened to land on the flower field in the yard. Butler Number One, who was watering the plants nearby, also came over and anxiously looked around.
Greya moved closer to the griffin's head to check what was going on. Before she could do anything, Toby's body began to shrink from the size of a building to a palm-sized bird.
There was only a deep crater left on the ground, and Toby was curled up in the middle of it.
Greya placed Toby on her palm and carefully observed him. Before she could figure out why Toby suddenly fainted, she heard a familiar snoring sound.
Greya was surprised. "He fell asleep?!"
Greya tried to recall what she had been doing recently. She had been training Toby nonstop to strengthen his mind so that he would be able to survive the outbreak of resentment.
Toby had not rested for three days in a row, and he spent most of his time in his griffin form. Maybe he was really tired.
Greya's eyes flickered with guilt and regret.
However, she quickly patted Toby's body and said, "Wake up! Don't sleep!"
Toby had just woken up from his dream and saw his "little master" talking to him. Something like "don't trust Greya" or something … But before he could finish, he felt the world around him trembling. He opened his eyes in a daze.
The first thing Toby saw was a pink hand that was slightly smaller than an adult male's.
Before Toby knew what was going on, the hand had already landed on his head.
The severe pain and dizziness brought Toby back to his senses. He quickly cried out before the hand could land on his head.
Toby's cry successfully stopped Greya's "Love Slap".
Greya quickly changed from slapping to caressing Toby's head. "Don't sleep. That thing will try to bewitch you again. If you want to sleep, wait for Angor to come back and let him take you to sleep."
Greya knew that the resentment inside Toby's body was still trying to influence him even though it was suppressed. Now, the resentment had become the thing Toby cared about the most in his dreams. Whenever Toby entered his dreams, it would bewitch him.
Strangely enough, as long as Angor took Toby to sleep, the resentment would not affect Toby's dreams.
When Greya saw Toby falling asleep due to exhaustion, she still tried to wake him up before he fell into a deep sleep.
"Angor went out just now. I don't know when he'll come back. Just wait for a while." Seeing Toby's sleepy face, Greya had no choice but to use more strength on her "Love Touch". Toby grimaced in pain and finally showed a satisfied expression.
As soon as Greya finished speaking, she heard footsteps coming from the door.
At the same time, Butler Number One also flew to the door and greeted the visitor respectfully. "Mister Padt."
Greya rubbed Toby's head. "Angor's back. If you want to sleep, go find him later."
Greya was about to explain the situation to Angor when she suddenly frowned and looked behind Angor.
Angor did not come back alone this time. He brought someone with him.
Behind Angor, who was dressed in a black gentleman suit, was a female Magician who was trying her best to put on a happy smile despite her unwillingness.
